Final day of pregnancy!

Well, I am being induced tomorrow morning at 9am. The little guy is just stubborn and not wanting to make his appearance. We were all SO sure that he was going to come early, guess he had other plans! It's really scary to think that by sometimes tomorrow I am going to be a mother. (providing he isn't TOO stubborn) Jake decided that it would be better to take the whole day off. He was going to go to work but we both decided that this is not something he should miss regardless of the fact that we are probably just going to be sitting there ALL day.

I am actually really sad. I know that might sound crazy and I am SO excited to meet our little man but it's really bittersweet to think that my first pregnancy is over. No more feeling the little guy squirm around, no more rubbing my belly and no more excuses to not suck in my stomach! ;)

That is something that I am NOT looking forward to. My post-pregnancy body. I am terrified of what I am going to look like and I think I am going to be counting the days until my Dr gives me medical release to start working out again. I am determined!!

Anyways, this pregnancy has gone pretty smooth. Aside from the MONTHS of morning sickness (week 6-20ish) and the oh so lovable stretch marks, I have loved being pregnant!! Here are a few progression pictures, it's really amazing to see how much I am grown in these 9 months! Wish me luck! The next time I post, I will hopefully be updating on a healthy and awesome delivery! *fingers crossed*

18 weeks

28 weeks

40 weeks

The final stretch...

Well as of tomorrow I am officially 38 weeks...

Officially going to be a mother...

Officially responsible for another life...

Officially TERRIFIED!

I am so excited, nervous, terrified and overwhelmed that I don't know quite what to do with myself. Thanks to our awesome friends and family we literally have EVERYTHING besides a digital camera for Aiden. All his clothes are washed, the bassinet is set up all we need now is the little guy to make his appearance. I have run it over in my head a thousand times of how I think he is going to show up. Will he be late, early, on time? Will my water break? There is so much running through my mind I'm surprised I get anything done anymore! Thankfully I am on summer break from school or I would be failing all my classes I am so distracted! Speaking of classes, those start back up in August which should be a real challenge raising a newborn and focusing on college. I can do it though!! :)

I am terrible at keeping up with this thing and am sure it will get even worse when he is here. I just hope that everything goes well! Here are a few pictures of my belly as of now! I am still keeping my bump progression pictures up to date. It's so strange to see how much I have grown over the past 9 months.

I realized that I have not really talked about Jake much in this blog. He has been my number one support system through this whole thing and I have no idea what I would do without him. I know that's how it is supposed to be, but from past experience, it doesn't always work like that. He has kept me calm and kept the stress at bay. He has been working two jobs to support our little family and I hope he realizes how much I appreciate him. He is going to be an amazing father and I am so excited to see him with Aiden! I love you babe!






p.s...as I type this, my little man has the hiccups! :) He gets so angry when he has them and rolls around like crazy! I love it!
